Acquired, but not in hand, is this 1925 Turf Cigarettes card of Hall of Famer George Sisler from the recently ended Brockelman Auction.

It has been on my wishlist for years, as it has all the obvious attributes of a classic card. It has a colorful action shot of a hitter that doesn't seem to resemble George Sisler, the depiction also being of a righthanded batter instead of a lefthander, the abbreviation of his name on the backside misidentified as "C.H.", his batting average for 1922 written as "41,979" instead of .420, a mention of a baseball monument in Washington that was never built, and all-time great name for the cigarette manufacturer...Alexander Boguslavsky.

Brian (I will provide bigger scans when the card arrives) edit: got around to scanning this bad boy, so promise kept, now carry on with your day.
